Might have dead-shorted the lipo, but I doubt it'll do much to the motor. Easy way to test by putting it on the charger or testing with a volt meter of some sort. Check the motor doesnt smell like an ashtray, that's the best sign of any overheating/thermal damage.

Keep your r/c stuff locked away & out of reach during maintenance- lipos can be very dangerous in the hands of small kids or morons...
